Description
〜Seto ware has a history of 1,300 years. The beckoning cat has long been loved as a good-luck charm that brings prosperity in business, happiness in the family, and the arrival of many customers. Although wild cats have inhabited Japan since ancient times, there were no domestic cats as pets as we know them today. Cats as domesticated cats came to Japan during the Nara period (710-794). They came to Japan with Buddhism from China. It is said that they were carried on ships to protect Buddhist scriptures and books from damage by rats. The earliest mention of cats is found in "Nihon ryoiki" written in the early Heian period (794-1185), and there are also descriptions of domesticated cats in "Pillow Book" and "Tale of Genji", suggesting that cats were familiar to people at least in the Heian period. #Made in Japan #Seto ware |

招き猫は商売繁盛・家内円満・千客万来をもたらす縁起物として永く愛用されています。
<招き猫の歴史>
日本には野生の山猫は昔から生息していたものの、今でいうペットとしての家猫は存在していなかった。飼い猫としての猫が日本にやってきたのは奈良時代。中国から仏教とともに日本にやってきた。仏教の経典や書籍などを鼠の被害から守るため船に乗せられて来たといわれている。
平安初期に書かれた『日本霊異記』に猫に関する最古の記述があり、『枕草子』や『源氏物語』には飼い猫にまつわる描写があることから、少なくとも平安時代には身近な存在になっていたことがうかがえる。
